  1. Dude. All done shiny new plastics. I hate that jump on Kernan; angle is too extreme. Awesome bike though!

    US is unsafe.

    Weird, huh? Mine are well behaved. Must be how you raise them.

    First Dual-Sport

    You crack me up. My buddy found a really clean xr440 through this group. He's from an MX and he's having a lot of fun with the Honda.

    Wow. Anyone have the latest info on madivac insurance?
  8. I totally get why you guys ride there. And I applaud you for it. And I think it's probably one of the safest ways to travel - pack of dudes going fast on dirts roads and trails. Awesome. I was victimized in Baja because I was a sitting duck. I was already squeamish about having to go into the wilderness unarmed; It was my first time out of the country. 450 miles from home, Pemex stations out of gas, no cell phones, then having a couple thousand dollars worth of stuff stolen from our campers. Then breaking up a threat to the American campers down the beach from us. It could happen here (211,000 unsolved murders since 1980). I've seen some creepy dudes in campsites and rest stops in America. But in America I've got a pistol under my shirt. Anybody else use that Rotella oil?
  9. "What would a Mexican cartel ever want anything to do with a gringo motorcycle rider??? Nothing!" Two words: Harry Devert.
  10. My Striker read 104 on one trail ride. It was doubled. 52 is on the wild side for me. I think it was on that one long stretch between the Cul-de-sac and Kernan.
  11. Dude. That might be some kind of record for that bike. Was it wobbly?
  12. Oh. This explains a lot. I never even think about fiddling with the clutch. Wow. I need help.

    Ducati Rider mowed down on the SR-54

    Bingo. Time to put her away.
  14. Hate to hear that. Just watched some of that video. Wow, it's almost unbelievable that they go that fast on those tight roads. No wonder so many have died. I respect their skills and courage. I just don't have it in me. My moving average in the dirt is around 18mph.

    Trail Tech: Vapor vs Striker

    I have the striker. Had someone install it for me. The heat sensor is connected to a head bolt. It worked fine for about a year; but now head temp readings are all over the road. I have no idea why. Speed and odometer still work ok.

    Ducati Rider mowed down on the SR-54

    Ugh. Just sickening. And enraging. We trade a career Spec Ops patriot for a worthless murderer. Some people get on a power trip behind the wheel. They do things they would never dare to do in person. Imagine her trying to knock him down in line at the bank or grocery store. But surround her with a couple tons of armor, and she becomes a killer. I've always taught my boys to be courteous to everyone; open doors, etc., for everyone - not just for women. This applies to traffic as well. Leave a big gap for others to make lane changes. Make extra room for lane splitters when you can. Weave/merge/yield when two lanes become one. That refusal to make eye-contact while refusing to yield business is for weasels. The whole thing goes a lot faster if we cooperate rather than compete. We're all going to get there; the person ahead of me will get there 5 seconds before me. I can't believe a man is dead over something so trivial.

    There's a hilarious skit based on this same idea.
